Wedding Cake

So, Praful and I are getting married on April 4th, 2009, and I want to get a lot of the work out of the way before I start school (I'm starting my LLM in taxation at Georgetown this fall). I'm a little nervous about juggling school, work, wedding planning, and of course friends and family! Everyone was making fun of me for sending out save the dates in June, but hey, whatever... :)

Anyways, because I love to bake, and I love dessert (especially cupcakes!) the wedding cake was very important to me. I wanted cupcakes, and with the help of my sister in law, Jamie, I found the perfect vendor.

So far, they have been really easy to work with. We can choose as many flavors as we want, and they'll dye the icing to match the colors we use for the reception.

So far, we (me, Praful, Deeds, and Pranav) tried mint chocolate chip, wedding cake white, chocolate ganache, red velvet, yellow with chocolate chip, and strawberry champagne. Deeds and I liked the wedding cake white and mint chocolate chip. Praful liked mint chocolate chip and chocolate ganache (you need milk with his, so we all agreed classic chocolate will be better), and Pranav liked the mint chocolate chip and strawberry. The wedding cake white had hint of almond in it, which Deeds and I liked, but Pranav and Praful found it to be gross. We are all disappointed in red velvet.

The mint chocolate chip was fabulous, so we are definitely going to use that! They have tons of other flavors, so we'll sample more the next time we're in Cleveland.
